Somebody Remind Me …

How long did it take for tariffs to affect coffee and banana and cocoa prices?

And how long is it going to take for them to come back down?

So Trump can do something about that, but he won’t do anything about this?
"What is serious, though, is this New York Times, you actually have children, children being left alone without their parents,” he explained as he held up a physical copy of the Times.

“Because you have the administration so obsessed on reaching their numbers,” he added before accusing, “And Stephen Miller thinks this is a good idea. This is Stephen Miller, thinks this is a good idea and Donald Trump lets it happen. Can we zoom in on this picture, please? Donald Trump lets this happen. Where children, here's a two-year-old who are (sic) left without their parents because they're trying to meet quotas that we said from the beginning, and we'll say it again, quotas that will never, ever be met."

Tossing aside the paper, he added, “This is America in 2025.”

“It's that image and that headline why Donald Trump's numbers on immigration are so underwater,” a disgusted Jonathan Lemire contributed. “This was supposed to be a signature issue. Americans are saying that's too much. Outside, maybe that thrills the hardest core faction of his base, but we know that the numbers they set out, the millions they want deported are not going to happen. And that though Americans, you know, in 2024 showed this, they want the southern border to be managed better.”
(Because they were systematically lied to about the border. Funny how Trump doesn’t even need a border wall anymore, isn’t it? The most generous explanation is that, in just a few months, he’s made the U.S. a pariah nation. Even Canadians won’t come here now.)

Does he really think we have no humanity in us, beyond concern over the price of coffee and cocoa? Don’t answer that, it’s a rhetorical question. 🙋‍♂️
